To  a  mother  of  Sport,  the 
MYOPIA  HUNT  CLUB, 
and  in  memory  of  the  pleasant 
days  spent  with  the  sportsmen  she 
has  reared,  this  book  is  dedicated 


PREFACE 


IF 

T"  'YAVING  been  requested  by  several  members  of 
M  #  the  Myopia  Hunt  Club  to  publish  in  some  per- 
ma?ient  book  form  what  have  been  known  for  some  years 
as  the  Myopia  Songs,  after  much  rnodeling  by  the  author 
they  have  assumed  this  shape.  May  it  meet  the  expec- 
tations of  the  "Chorus^ 

'The  requesting  parties  do  not  seem  to  think  they  are 
worn  down  to  the  bone,  even  after  their  long  use;  and 
though  intended  to  be  noisy  they  certify  they  are  not 
"  roarers"  are  warranted  "  sound"  without  blemish. 

If  the  author  is  not  required  to  endorse  the  certificate, 
and  the  members  of  the  Myopia  Hunt  Club  will  accept 
theirs,  these  songs  become  club  property,  and  the  deed  is 
recorded  in  this  book. 

Perhaps,  like  old  clothing,  these  Songs  when  brought 
out  into  the  air  tnay  be  found  "  moth-eaten."     However^

The   APOCRYPHA 


IF 


HE  MYOPIA  CLUB  of  Winches- 
ter was  organized  and  incorporated 
in  1879.  A  club-house  was  built, 
and  grounds  were  laid  out  in  a 
moderate  way.  There  was  a  plank 
lawn  tennis  court,  which  was  one  of 
the  pioneer  courts  in  this  country.  The  nucleus  of 
the  Club  sport  was  the  great  national  game,  base 
ball.  This  was  played  under  unusual  conditions,  — 
being  supported  during  play  by  frequent  "wee  nips  " 
of  Myopia  punch,  our  own  brew.  It  proved  a  great 
"  mascot,"  and  is  responsible  for  many  a  victory  and 
also  for  the  birth  of  the  Club.  At  any  rate,  as  seen 
through  the  spectacles  of  time,  it  moved  us  to  the 
idea  of  forming  a  Club,  and  no  doubt  the  punch  had 
its  influence  in  selecting  the  name  Myopia.  Eye- 
glasses were  a  badge  of  distinction,  amounting  to  a  de- 
coration.    Many  Myopes  wore  them  on  the  ball-field. 


8  The  Apocrypha 


The  annual  after-dinner  processions  through  the 
club-house  may  be  recalled,  —  a  bath-tub  for  a  bass 
drum.  Though  there  may  have  been  most  extraor- 
dinary variations  in  the  musical  time  of  the  drum, 
and  great  unsteadiness  in  the  ranks,  yet  as  they  were 
never  inspected  by  any  military  critics,  there  can  be 
no  doubt  that  at  least  they  would  have  amused  the 
Napoleons,  and  would  have  been  reported  on  as 
unique,  if  not  up  to  the  highest  military  standards. 

A  Myopia  omelette  was  invented ;  and  the  fra- 
grance of  its  rich  aroma,  when  it  filled  the  nostrils 
of  the  bust  of  "  Homer  "  (labeled  "  An  Early  Myo- 
pian")  put  life  into  the  very  clay.  A  momentary 
expression  of  delight,  mingled  with  an  air  of  grati- 
tude for  small  favors  received,  passed  over  the  face. 
With  true  poetic  grace,  no  visible  sign  of  aggrava- 
tion was  manifested,  though  it  might  have  been 
excused,  considering  the  "  Early  Myopian's "  long 
fast. 

At  Lexington,  near  Winchester,  an  Englishman 
who  had  letters  from  a  high  English  legal  authority 
was  entertained  at  a  dinner.  It  was  known  that  he 
was  taking  notes  of  his  American  experiences.  Every 
opportunity  was  given  him  to  study  American  table 
manners.  He  was  joked  in  bad  grammar  and  per- 
haps with  bad  pranks,  and  was  finally  honored  by  a 
Myopia  land-slide.  He  was  amused,  if  not  some- 
what startled,  and  seemed   credulous  when  told  that 


Mr.  H.  A.   Allan,   Master

it  was  the  greatest  American  compliment  to  a  guest. 
A  land-slide  is  produced  by  lifting  one  end  of  the 
table  and  forcing  all  the  dishes  to  fall  in  a  heap  at 
the  other  end.  This  was  an  unusually  prolonged 
one,  as  the  table  was  long.  The  landlord's  bill  was 
also  long,  as  a  successful  land-slide  necessitates  the 
smashing  of  much  crockery.  Strictly  speaking,  no 
defense  of  such  a  folly  can  be  made ;  still  a  book  on 
The  Toasts  of  all  Nations  might  convince  the  skep- 
tical that  in  more  than  one  nation  glasses  are  broken 
after  drinking.  Besides,  with  all  the  everlasting  talk 
some  pour  into  the  ears  of  travelers  through  our 
country  about  our  magnificent  distances,  high  moun- 
tains, long  and  wide  rivers,  and  "  great  institutions," 
we  were  rather  forced  to  emphasize  the  social  side 
in  some  way,  in  order  that  the  greatness  of  our  fol- 
lies might  make  the  affair  distinctively  American, 
Shortly  after  this  an  English  lord  visited  Boston ; 
and  wishing  to  send  home  to  his  mother  "  some- 
thing distinctively  American,"  as  he  expressed  it,  a 
local  wit  suggested  "  a  barrel  of  Cape  Cod  cranber- 
ries." 

After  two  years  of  base  ball,  lawn  tennis,  and  up- 
setting the  dignity  of  the  plastic  "  Homer "  with 
omelettes,  Myopians  began  to  sigh  for  new  sports. 
As  the  printing-press  and  steam-engine  appeared  just 
in  the  nick  of  time  to  benefit  mankind,  so  Hunting 
appeared,  to  interest  Myopians  ;  and  it  probably  saved 
the  name  of  Myopia  from  oblivion. 


lo  The  Apocrypha 

The  sport  of  hunting  was  suggested  at  Winchester 
by  Mr.  F.  H.  Prince,  who  had  followed  the  hounds 
at  Newport.  In  1881,  hounds  were  brought  from 
Canada  to  Winchester  by  Master  H.  A.  Allan.  Here 
occurred,  on  an  unusually  fine  December  morning, 
the  famous  "  kill "  when  snow  was  on  the  ground, 
described  by  those  who  were  there  as  having  more 
of  the  quality  of  true  sport  than  any  other  hunting 
scene  they  had  ever  witnessed. 

Genuine  "  brushes  "  of  the  Reynard  variety  exist 
at  this  day  which  were  once  worn  by  Winchester 
foxes. 

As  the  Hunt  first  passed  through  Lexington  Green 
the  pink  was  an  apparition  to  the  old  town,  rich  in 
Revolutionary  history.  Old  flintlocks  fell  from  over 
the  fireplace  where  they  had  lain  for  a  century  in 
their  efforts  to  get  into  action.  What  might  have 
happened  is  mere  conjecture.  The  humorous  re- 
mark of  the  oldest  inhabitant  as  the  Hunt  proceeded 
towards  the  interior,  that  "  '  redcoats '  when  last  seen 
on  Lexington  Green  were  going  the  other  way," 
probably  prevented  a  riot. 

Some  Myopians  are  perhaps  not  aware  that  several 
private  packs  of  hounds  were  owned  in  New  Eng- 
land at  least  seventy-five  years  ago. 

The  first  case  of  a  Boston  lawyer,  now  one  of  the 
oldest  members  of  the  profession  in  the  city,  was 
against    a    huntsman    almost    sixty  years    ago.      He 


The  Apocrypha  i  i 


started  out  to  collect  his  claim,  accompanied  by  a 
young  legal  friend,  in  the  first  chaise  used  in  the 
Hub,  which  was  considered  very  "  swell "  in  those 
days.  After  a  long  drive  they  arrived  at  their  desti- 
nation, and  were  received  by  the  huntsman  in  pink, 
just  in  from  a  successful  morning,  and  their  host, 
little  suspecting  their  errand,  invited  them  to  break- 
fast. So  lavish  was  his  hospitality  that  they  returned 
without  mentioning  the  claim. 

At  Winchester,  during  the  winter  of  1881,  there 
was  a  great  deal  of  talk  about  a  Myopia  spring  race 
meeting.  The  conservatives  were  strong  in  their 
opinion  that  Boston  would  not  patronize  racing,  and 
that  it  would  be  a  flat  failure.  But  the  "  plungers  " 
prevailed,  with  the  true  Myopian  spirit  of  going 
ahead  and  surmounting  obstacles.  The  enthusiastic 
agreed  to  back  what  seemed  rather  a  gigantic  enter- 
prise in  those  days,  and  a  steeple-chase  meeting  was 
advertised  at  Beacon  Park,  Brighton,  in  the  spring  of 
1882.  A  long  streamer  "with  the  strange  device" 
Myopia  waved  defiance  to  Boston  Puritan  prejudice 
against  racing. 

A  party  of  New  York  men  who  had  come  on 
to  Boston  to  ride,  while  in  a  carriage  driving  to 
the  Park,  were  asking  each  other  what  "Myopia" 
meant,  when  to  their  astonishment  the  driver,  with 
the  usual  "Beg  your  pardon,  sir,"  in  rather  a  didac- 
tic manner  informed  them  that   "  Myopia  "  was  de- 


12  The  Apocrypha 


rived  from  the  Greek  and  meant  near-sightedness. 
"You  get  inside,  and  I  will  drive!"  wzs.  the  quick- 
witted cosmopolitan  recognition  of  such  profundity 
by  one  of  the  New  Yorkers. 

So,  after  a  long  Rip  Van  Winkle  slumber,  racing 
was  revived,  and  the  new  era  of  racing  began  which 
is  now  so  successfully  carried  on  by  the  Country  Club 
of  Brookline.  The  first  Myopia  Club  races  at  Bea- 
con Park  drew  an  attendance  of  about  eight  hundred 
people ;  but  as  the  purses  were  very  small  the  guar- 
antors were  called  on  for  very  little  money,  if  any, 
to  settle  all  bills.  The  races  at  the  Country  Club 
are  now  attended  by  four  to  five  thousand  people,  — 
about  all  the  grounds  can  accommodate  comfortably. 

There  must  have  lurked  in  the  Puritan  Boston  of 
1882  some  of  the  Cromwellian  strain  (Cromwell 
owned  race-horses  and  ran  them),  as  has  been  shown 
by  the  increased  interest  in  this  sport.  In  1882  the 
Country  Club  was  organized,  which  probably  was 
suggested  by  the  possibilities  of  the  greater  field  for 
racing  and  other  sports  under  a  stronger  club,  nearer 
Boston,  Winchester  being  too  far  for  afternoon 
driving. 

As  the  Country  Club  absorbed  the  Myopia  Club, 
the  latter  dissolved  in  1883.  The  Myopia  Club 
lived  a  useful  life  and  did  good  missionary  work  in 
suggesting  the  idea  of  country  clubs  near  Boston,  and 
fairly  earned  the  title  of  a  mother  of  sport  for  this 


The  Apocrypha  13 


vicinity.  Through  the  Myopia  Club,  racing  was 
revived  and  hunting  was  introduced.  The  club  was 
always  active  in  spreading  the  glad  tidings  of  outdoor 
life. 

The  name  was  preserved  to  posterity  through  the 
Myopia  Fox-Hounds,  formed  in  1882,  composed 
of  thirty  members.  The  kennels  were  on  the  Myo- 
pia Club  grounds  in  Winchester.  The  roll-call  of 
the  Winchester  battalions  who  are  now  members  of 
the  Myopia  Hunt  Club  would  not  muster  a  corpo- 
ral's guard ;  and  it  is  a  matter  of  deep  regret  that  so 
many  have  resigned  who  resurrected  hunting  with  a 
pack  of  hounds  and  who  were  the  first  to  introduce 
a  subscription  pack  and  hunt  club  into  this  neighbor- 
hood. 

As  these  recollections  of  Winchester  are  largely 
drawn  from  memory,  the  records  of  the  Myopia 
Club  being  either  lost  or  destroyed,  they  have  been 
written  under  the  title  of  the  Apocrypha. 

The  glory  of  Winchester  days  was  the  good  fel- 
lowship and  brightness  of  its  social  club  life.  Bac- 
chus will  vouch  there  was  fun  there.  The  faith  in 
Bacchus  seemed  declining  until  a  Bacchante  *  was 
sent  to  us,  which  has  been  domiciled  in  our  most 
beautiful  palace,  rent  free.  Is  this  a  Jesuitic  move 
on  the  part  of  Bacchus  to  gain  a  foothold  ? 

*  Since  the  above  was  written,  the  Bacchante  has  been  removed  to 
the  Metropolitan  Museum,  New  York. 


14  'The  Apocrypha 


The  inquiry  might  be  pursued  further  by  asking 
if  the  PubHc  Library  is  to  become  a  bacchanalian 
headquarters. 

But  Bacchus  is  too  late  for  Myopians.  They  re- 
nounced the  faith  years  ago,  and  have  embraced  a 
new  one.  Inspired  by  fresh  air  and  hunting  they 
kneel  at  the  altar  of  Diana. 

But  in  these  days  of  broad  views  the  exclusive 
worship  of  Diana  is  narrow  and  sectarian.  The 
modern  sportsman  is  not  content  with  a  sport  lasting 
but  a  short  season ;  he  must  be  a  devotee  to  several, 
lasting  through  the  year ;  he  must  have  a  demi-god 
which  includes  every  form  of  exercise,  —  in  fact, 
something  which  in  a  larger  sense  represents  his 
ideals  and  fills  his  imagination.  Therefore  Diana  is 
now  a  saint ;  and  a  god  older  than  Homer  —  but, 
comparatively  speaking,  new  to  America  —  has  ap- 
peared, whose  temples  are  no  longer  slighted,  but 
are  daily  thronged  with  the  devout.  All  good,  ad- 
vanced Myopians  worship  at  this  shrine,  and  when 
spelt  in  large  letters  the  name  of  their  deity  is  Sport.

INCHESTER  not  proving  a  happy 
hunting-ground,  the  Myopia  Fox 
Hounds  hunted  from  the  Agawam 
House,  Ipswich,  in  1881,  and  in 
1882  from  the  Gibney  Farm,  Ham- 
ilton. Mr,  H.  A.  Allan  was  Mas- 
ter and  hunted  the  hounds.  The  kennels  were  at 
Colt's  Leap,  Myopia  Club  Grounds,  Winchester. 

In  1883  a  canary-colored  club-book  appeared, 
bearing  the  title  "Myopia  Hunt  Club."  There  were 
thirty  members,  and  with  subscribers  the  list  showed 
about  sixty  in  all.  Mr.  Seabury  was  Master  and 
hunted  the  hounds  at  Brookline  and  Hamilton. 
The  kennels  were  at  Clyde  Park,  Brookline  Coun- 
try Club  Grounds,  and  at  Gibney  Farm,  Hamilton. 
The  hounds  hunted  the  wild  fox  at  both  places. 
Paper  chases  were  also  run  from  the  Country  Club, 
Brookline. 


24  Red  Room  and  Other  Chat 

From  1884  to  I  89 1  the  Club  was  known  as  the 
Myopia  Hunt.  In  1891  a  new  constitution  was  ac- 
cepted, and  in  due  course  the  Club  was  incorporated 
in  1892,  with  the  name  Myopia  Hunt  Club.  Its 
seal  was  dated  1882;  its  colors  were  pink  and  ca- 
nary. 

In  1885  ten  couples  of  beagles  arrived  from 
England,  the  gift  of  Mr.  G.  H.  Warren ;  and  they 
ran  "  drags  "  from  the  Country  Club  from  the  mid- 
dle of  October  until  the  heavy  frosts  set  in,  being 
hunted  by  Mr.  Warren,  who  represented  the  Master 
at  Brookline.  Both  packs  were  kept  until  1888, 
when  drags  were  given  up  at  Brookline. 

In  1889  fox-hunting  was  practically  abandoned  at 
Hamilton,  the  beagles  were  disposed  of,  and  the 
hounds  were  then  used  for  running  drags.  Drags  at 
Hamilton  were  at  first  laid  for  a  distance  of  three 
to  four  miles,  but  have  been  increased  to  such  a  dis- 
tance that  now  a  drag  of  ten  miles  is  not  unusual. 

It  would  be  an  endless  task  to  string  the  beads  of 
all  the  runs  about  Hamilton  and  the  neighboring 
towns.  Those  interested  are  referred  to  the  Hunt 
"  Log-Book,"  which  contains  very  full  up-to-date 
records. 

Many  would  be  disappointed  if  the  fox-hunting 
about  Framingham  were  not  mentioned,  and  also  the 
charming  hospitality  at  Millwood  Farm,  the  resi- 
dence of  the  late  Mr.  E.  F.  Bowditch. 


Red  Room  and  Other  Chat  25 

Cheapness  at  Hamilton  reigned  supreme  ;  but  no 
one  grumbled  at  the  loss  of  accustomed  luxuries,  as 
there  was  plenty  of  fun.  Sport  of  the  workmanlike 
sort  caused  even  the  blase  to  burst  out  into  flames  of 
enthusiasm. 

To  men  in  the  habit  of  rising  late,  the  early  morn- 
ing hunts  were  a  new  sensation.  The  first  "  pink- 
coat  "  coffee  at  five  o'clock,  A.  M.,  was  far  from 
hilarious  after  only  a  short  rest.  In  these  days  ladies 
are  conspicuous  by  their  absence  from  early  morning 
meets ;  and  it  is  hard  to  realize  the  feeling  of  those 
present  at  the  first  appearance  of  the  Dianas  in  the 
black  of  that  raw,  dismal  autumn  morning.  It  seems 
as  if  when  ladies  "  touch  our  country  their  shackles 
fall."  It  was  to  many  the  emancipation  of  the  Bos- 
ton girl  from  the  slavery  of  conventionalism  to  the 
freedom  of  the  "  new  woman."  Jogging  to  cover, 
there  was  an  efibrt  to  be  social,  though  awkwardness 
on  both  sides  was  apparent.  The  bows  were  hardly 
up  to  the  Papanti  standard ;  the  talk  was  of  the 
glum,  monosyllabic  order.  But  as  the  sun  arose 
from  behind  the  hill  all  was  changed,  and  we  warmed 
to  the  occasion  and  recovered  our  true  selves. 

The  first  Club  polo  game,  which  was  also  the 
first  game  of  polo  in  the  vicinity  of  Boston,  was 
played  at  Gibney  Farm.  The  so-called  Polo  Ground, 
a  rough  pasture  rolled  for  a  week  or  two,  was  not 
worthy  of  the  name.     If  the  ground  was  bad,  the 


26  Red  Room  and  Other  Chat 

game  was  worse.  It  might  be  described  as  a  suc- 
cession of  scrimmages.  Occasionally  the  ball  was 
knocked  out  into  the  open,  rushed  for  by  the  nearest 
rider,  missed!  then  another  scrimmage. 

So  great,  however,  was  the  interest  created  by  polo 
that  the  "  hunters "  began  to  quake,  as  they  over- 
heard some  of  their  masters  of  moderate  means 
threaten  to  take  up  with  "  t'  other  dear  charmer," 
not  being  able  to  coquette  with  both. 

Polo  is  a  great  game.  By  the  enthusiasts  it  is 
ranked  next  to  war.  The  "  image  of  War  "  would 
suit  us  better,  but  as  Mr.  Jorrocks  has  spoken  of 
hunting  under  this  figure,  out  of  respect  for  that 
ardent  sportsman  we  forbear.  In  war  some  escape 
unharmed ;  but  in  our  first  polo  battles  it  is  safe  to 
include  the  total  of  both  sides  in  the  list  of  wounded. 
The  ambulance  was  in  frequent  requisition  during 
early  games. 

Polo  is  no  longer  played  with  Indian  barbarity 
and  Indian  riding,  but  is  conducted  according  to  the 
rules  of  modern  civilized  warfare.  With  improved 
tactics,  and  faster  and  more  conservative  riding,  the 
"  gallery  "  is  spared  many  disagreeable  sights  which 
were  of  no  interest  to  any  except  alarmed  friends  and 
the  village  doctor,  —  perhaps  the  patient  should  be 
included,  though  often  unable  to  take  any  interest  in 
anything.  Our  teams  have  won  great  games,  and 
it   is   not    invidious    to   say   that    in    more   than   one

year  the  "  blue  and  white "  have  played  a  strong 
game. 

The  Myopia  polo  team  has  never  failed  to  throw 
down  the  gauntlet  at  Newport,  the  nerve  centre 
of  summer  polo,  in  every  tournament  since  1889. 
Thus  we  have  seen  polo  lifted  from  the  merriment 
of  a  burlesque  to  the  serious  drama  of  a  champion- 
ship. 

Some  of  the  polo-field  talk  under  excitement  or 
disgust  would  appear  far  from  pretty  in  print ;  but 
we  will  draw  the  veil.  It  is  pleasant  to  record  the 
carriage  of  the  captain  of  a  visiting  team.  As  he  led 
his  defeated  quartette  off  our  field,  subjected  to  the 
misfortune  of  a  "  goose  egg  "  for  a  game  score,  he 
jocundly  remarked,  "  A  most  brilliant  defeat ! "  Such 
men  are  blessed  with  a  temper  which  suggests  the 
line,  "  Can  make  to-morrow  as  cheerful  as  to-day." 
The  "  to-morrow"  was  cheerful,  as  Myopians  know, 
for  he  brought  his  team  up  to  a  point  of  skill  that 
won  victory,  obtained  his  sporting  revenge,  as  well  as 
a  reward  for  his  buoyancy  of  spirit  under  defeat. 

At  Gibney  Farm  House  the  Red  Room  was  born 
with  all  its  fascinations,  even  to  the  ladies.  May  it 
always  be  painted  red.  Here  the  object  talkers  most 
do  congregate,  and  the  noise  and  din  is  such  that 
even  a  stock-broker  might  fear  to  enter  ;  yet  it  is 
very  much  like  the  "  Board,"  all  sports  being  dealt 
in,  besides  horses  and  ponies.     In  early  polo  days  one 


28  Red   Room  and  Other  Chat 

member  fairly  became  a  dealer  in  his  anxiety  to  have 
the  best,  and  sold  a  condemed  lot  of  eight  for  a  lump 
sum.  The  minds  of  some  of  the  Red  Room  oracles 
are  palaces ;  they  know  what  they  know ;  they  are 
hard-riding  squires,  too. 

Dr.  Johnson  was  a  "  cross-country  man,"  was 
handy  with  his  fists,  and  regretted  the  decline  of 
pugilism  in  his  day.  If  the  shade  of  the  learned 
Doctor  should  drop  in  at  the  Red  Room  during  the 
heat  of  discussion,  doubtless  he  would  be  pleased  to 
discover  that  his  own  style  of  sledge-hammer  ar- 
gument "when  wishing  to  drive  home  a  particular 
point"  is  still  extant.  Nevertheless,  the  Red  Room 
object  talker  is  "  true  blue,"  and  merits  being  Bos- 
wellized.  Some  writers  seem  to  think  that  Mr.  Bos- 
well  has  rather  overdone  the  Doctor.  It  is  hoped 
that  no  critic  will  ever  receive  any  support  who  tries 
to  take  Dr.  Johnson  out  of  the  hunting-field. 

May  Shakespeare's  epitaph,  "  Curst  be  he  who 
moves  my  bones,"  confront  any  House  Committee 
who  proposes  any  change  in  the  Red  Room ! 

At  one  time  time  the  Red  Room  had  a  great  rival 
in  the  "  Raving  Ward."  It  was  an  overflow  sleep- 
ing-room, which  looked  like  a  hospital  ward  with  its 
rows  of  beds.  It  was  also  an  overflow  bathroom. 
It  had  a  "  splash  "  and  shower-bath,  both  well  pat- 
ronized after  a  "  run."  Though  the  convivial  glass 
will  inspire  the  romance  of  hunting,  it  was  demon-

strated  repeatedly  that  a  cold  shower  causes  the  im- 
agination to  run  wild,  and  from  it  the  most  Mun- 
chausen-like  tales  of  hunting  experiences  have  been 
produced.  The  genial  Baron  himself  would  have 
found  his  invention  dull  here  after  a  "  run,"  such  was 
the  extravagance  of  the  gasconade.  One  can  read 
the  Baron's  delightful  fancies  in  quiet,  but  a  "  Rav- 
ing Ward "  rhapsody  had  to  be  listened  to  while 
some  four  or  five  other  thrilling  experiences  were 
being  told,  all  with  great  emphasis  and  power.  The 
aggregate  noise  was  like  the  roar  of  Niagara.  From 
this  stentorian  shouting  the  room  took  its  name. 

In  the  "  Raving  Ward  "  the  Club  crutches  were 
then  kept,  and  though  significant  of  the  perils  of  the 
chase  they  were  seldom  used.  They  stood  in  gloomy 
silence,  with  perhaps  the  pent-up  indignation  of  wall- 
flowers, watching  the  bathers  perform  on  the  stilts 
of  high  spirits,  —  the  effervescence  of  a  successful 
"run." 

It  is  by  no  means  from  the  dim  past  that  the  old 
"  Chebacco "  House  looms  up.  The  air  seemed 
heavy  as  you  entered  the  low-studded  dining-room, 
with  its  chocolate  and  gilt  wall  paper,  red  tablecloth, 
and  doily  to  match.  Glancing  about  as  one  unfolded 
the  doily,  the  surroundings  caused  a  depressed  feeling, 
—  a  sense  of  "carrying  weight."  A  glass  of  cham- 
pagne, and  the  "  carrying  weight  "  feeling  disappears, 
in  time  for  the  inevitable  broiled  chicken,  —  always 
good,  perhaps  for  being  cooked  over  a  wood  fire. 


30  Red   Room  and  Other  Chat 

The  old  "  Chebacco "  days  had  a  great  deal  of 
"  GO  !  "  Such  late  dinners  ;  such  late  hours  ;  such 
larks!  Who  ever  expects  to  dance  again  such  Vir- 
ginia reels  as  when  the  village  fiddler  tuned  the 
strings  ? 

We  are  now  out  of  the  homespun,  and  wear  good 
clothes.  Riders  no  longer  dispute  over  the  "  pink  " 
and  the  "  blue."  To  be  correct  one's  colors  must  be 
well  toned  down  to  nature.  The  feeling  towards 
the  "  pink  "  on  the  part  of  the  well-toned,  down-to- 
nature  group  suggests  the  story  of  the  Englishman 
who,  when  his  attention  was  called  to  the  color  of 
our  autumn  foliage,  said,  "  But  don't  you  think  it 
a  trifle  gaudy?"  Though  the  "pink"  may  go  the 
way  of  all  things,  many  will  part  with  it  with  regret. 
It  is  still  the  prerogative  of  the  farm-hand  who  takes 
a  short  burst  in  the  rear  on  the  farm  utility  horse  to 
wear  overalls,  with  galluses,  no  collar,  and  his  large 
bandless  straw  hat. 

Golf  has  been  introduced  as  a  Myopia  sport.  Its 
development  has  been  principally  due  to  the  efforts 
of  Mr.  Bush  and  Mr.  Parker,  who,  in  the  opinion  of 
many,  have  laid  out  one  of  the  best  inland  courses  in 
the  country. 

Myopians  have  now  a  new  side  to  their  charac- 
ters. They  have  taken  to  golf  seriously.  Surely  no- 
thing can  be  more  serious  with  us  —  except  perhaps 
the  judges  at  the  Horse   Show  —  than  the  earnest 


Red  Room  and  Other  Chat  31 

golfer.  Members  come  into  the  Red  Room  after  a 
hunt  exhilarated,  enthusiastic.  The  golfer  is  usually 
downcast  after  a  round.  Evidently  to  him  "  Youth 
is  a  blunder ;  Manhood  a  struggle ;  Old  Age  a  re- 
gret." 

To  check  the  risibilities  required  quite  an  effort 
as  the  first  professional  golf  match  was  played,  so 
downcast  were  the  spectators.  The  funereal  proces- 
sion wound  over  the  hills  and  through  the  valley 
with  an  awful  Hush  !  Only  the  presence  of  a  bier 
and  the  tolling  of  the  village  bell  could  have  increased 
the  solemnity.  The  following  was  overheard  from 
the  Pond  teeing-ground  :  — 

"  I  just  drove  over  the  pond  with  a  putter !  " 

«*  Why  did  you  do  it  ?  " 

"  Oh,  in  the  cause  of  science,"  was  the  reply. 

This  is  the  only  sunbeam  that  was  ever  known  to 
penetrate  the  gloom  of  Myopian  golf. 

We  no  longer  have  a  coach ;  but  a  few  years  ago 
the  coach  "  Myopia  "  ran  from  Manchester-by-the- 
Sea  to  the  kennels  on  polo  days.  In  another  season 
the  "  Constitution "  ran  from  Pride's  Crossing  to 
Manchester-by-the-Sea,  thence  to  the  kennels.  Both 
were  a  credit  to  the  Club,  being  well  horsed  and 
well  managed  in  every  way. 

Tandem  meets  in  the  past  were  very  pretty  sights, 
the  first  being  under  the  guidance  of  Mr,  S.  Endicott 
Peabody.     A  feature  of  the  second  one  was  the  Irish 


32  Red   Room   and  Other  Chat 

jaunting  car.  The  ladies  wore  green ;  the  gentlemen 
had  green  hatbands  with  flowing  ends.  It  was  all 
picturesquely  Irish,  except  the  brogue,  which  was 
marred  by  a  French  accent. 

The  boundaries  of  our  success  can  only  be  mea- 
sured by  what  we  have  done.  We  have  won  a  Na- 
tional Polo  Association  Championship,  which  awak- 
ened our  Club  pride. 

We  have  maintained  the  manly  sport  of  hunting

because  a  large  part  of  our  country  is  covered  with 
swamps.  To-day  the  conditions  of  the  open  coun- 
try are  much  changed  by  the  use  of  the  modern 
curse, — wire.  A  tangled  web  is  being  woven  which 
may  call  for  a  further  solving  of  the  problem  of 
drags.  Drags  have  been  developed  to  such  a  point 
that  rarely  a  really  bad  run  is  ever  had,  and  they  cer- 
tainly afford  more  fun  to  the  hard  riding  "  follower  " 
than  the  pottering  of  early  days.  Some  students  of 
the  "drags"  claim  they  will  yet  be  able  to  give  them 
all  the  features  of  wild  fox-hunting.  We  hope  their 
efforts  may  prove  successful.  A  past  member  of  our 
Club,  for  many  years  Master  of  a  hunt  near  New 
York,  has  tried  every  known  artificial  scent  with  vary- 
ing success.  With  Darwinian  research  he  has  evolved 
a  science,  and  has  proved  a  natural  selection  of  scents 
adapted  to  the  different  atmospheric  conditions.

The  Judge,  the  village  legal  dignitary,  once  said 


I'oi.o  PRIZE  cvr 


Red  Room  and  Other  Chat  33 

that  hunting  was  one  of  the  important  industries  of 
Hamilton.  Though  said  in  jest,  his  remark  contains 
considerable  truth,  for  the  village  has  reaped  some 
advantage,  as  will  be  shown. 

Speaking  of  hunting  as  an  industry,  many  will  be 
surprised  to  learn  that  according  to  Badminton  there 
are  altogether  over  three  hundred  packs  of  staghounds, 
foxhounds,  harriers,  and  beagles  in  England,  Ireland, 
and  Scotland.  A  few  years  ago  a  Boston  daily  paper 
appeared  with  an  article  showing  an  investment  in 
England  alone  of  about  twenty  millions  of  dollars  for 
these  sports.  Perhaps  in  this  country  an  estimate  of 
one  million  dollars  for  hunting  and  polo  is  not  an  ex- 
cessive amount.  This  includes  the  various  Club  pro- 
perties connected  with  the  sports.  Golf  threatens  to 
become  a  rival  of  the  bicycle  industry  in  the  amount 
of  capital  invested.  Every  village  and  town  feels  the 
necessity  of  a  golf-course  in  the  pursuit  of  happiness. 

When  country  people  become  aware  of  these  facts 
we  may  expect  rival  villages  to  compete  for  the  set- 
tlement of  Hunt  Clubs  in  their  midst.  In  the  com- 
petition we  are  prepared  to  hear  that  the  selectmen 
offer  a  house  free  of  rent  for  the  Master.  As  in  the 
case  of  other  industries,  of  course  the  Club  property 
will  be  exempt  from  taxes  for  five  years.  Restric- 
tions on  barbed  wire  might  be  made  by  the  select- 
men. Negotiators  for  Hunt  Club  sites  must  not  be 
deceived  by  popular  sentiment  against  electric  rail-

roads.  This  is  sure  to  change,  and  is  always  likely 
to  spoil  any  New  England  village  when  least  ex- 
pected. 

We  have  run  the  gamut  of  Labor  Day  sports,  be- 
ginning with  races  on  the  flat  and  steeple-chases,  also 
"point  to  point"  races,  to  amuse  the  farmers  and 
their  families.  The  Princemere  christening  was  a 
very  interesting  race  meeting,  at  which  the  turnouts 
were  unusually  smart,  and  on  the  whole  was  a  pic- 
ture with  a  charm  which  the  Shore  has  not  since 
reproduced.  Then  followed  in  other  years  a  series  of 
Gymkhana  Games.  In  1896  the  first  Horse  Show 
was  held  on  the  polo  ground.  Through  this  show 
the  Club  put  themselves  in  touch  with  the  farmers 
and  villagers,  who  were  highly  entertained  and  turned 
out  in  force.  There  were  about  two  hundred  entries. 
The  judges  were  busy  all  day  long,  and  an  interested 
crowd  remained  through  the  twilight  until  dark, 
determined  to  see  the  last  jump  taken.  Ladies  accus- 
tomed to  riding  straight  to  hounds  competed  for  the 
prizes,  and  two  of  the  fair  captured  blue  ribbons. 
This  was  a  matter  of  pride  to  all  Myopians. 

Music  on  Sunday  afternoons  for  the  entertainment 
of  the  ladies  was  kept  up  for  many  years,  by  the  favor 
of  Master  Seabury.  An  ambitious  attempt  to  intro- 
duce full  band  concerts  on  Sundays  was  frowned 
down  by  the  conservative  element.  Spirited  dances 
at  the  Annex  for  members  have  been  given.     Christ-

mas   trees  and   Christmas  dinners  to  village  children 
are  still  in  vogue,  and  long  may  they  prevail. 

All  Myopians,  besides  enjoying  sport,  enjoy  nature. 
To  quote  from  what  Carlyle  called  the  "  ghastly  " 
science  of  political  economy,  nature  never  whispers 
anything  about  Taxes.  Still  it  is  admitted  that  Taxes 
are  necessary  to  the  social  order.  Myopians  at  Ham- 
ilton are  very  close  to  nature  in  this  respect,  as  Taxes 
are  very  low ;  and  this  is  due  indirectly  to  the  Myo- 
pia Hunt  Club.  The  farmers  are  very  generous  in 
allowing  us  to  ride  over  their  lands,  and  many  of 
them  have  sporting  tendencies.  Doubtless  they  are 
pleased  at  lower  tax  rates  and  the  increasing  values 
of  real  estate.  It  is  to  be  hoped  that  these  factors 
have  their  influence  in  soothing  their  irritation  when- 
ever an  overlooked  broken  rail  is  not  replaced  by 
a  sound  one. 

Though  it  is  claimed  that  parsimony  is  a  funda- 
mental principle  in  nature,  yet  to  the  casual  observer 
she  is  at  times  quite  prodigal,  and  furnishes  sufficient 
ground  for  those  who  are  not  close  students  of  natu- 
ral laws  to  indulge  in  a  little  conservative  sporting 
extravagance.  Sport  is  considered  by  many  to  be 
a  waste  of  money,  and  probably  not  a  few  of  the 
devotees  of  Carlyle's  "  ghastly "  science  think  the 
sums  spent  ought  to  be  added  to  Capital. 

We  diff^er  from  this  view ;  because  some  few  in  a 
community  are  benefited  —  they  are  consumers  and 


36  Red  Room  and  Other  Chat 

must  buy  !  Besides,  it  pleases  the  Myopian  to  see 
the  nimble  sixpence  "  get  a  move  on,"  to  use  a  race- 
track phrase.  Myopians  are  all  altruistic,  and  though 
their  contributions  to  the  general  good  are  filtered 
through  selfishness,  they  regard  their  sporting  outgo 
from  an  altruistic  standpoint. 

There  is  no  living  Myopian  example  of  the  high- 
est altruistic  flights  who  prefers  to  peddle  out  his 
fortune  little  by  little  at  a  loss  in  order  to  look  his 
fellow^  man  in  the  face  and  call  him  "  Brother  "  ! 
Born  in  thrifty  New  England,  it  is  bred  into  the 
very  bones  of  Myopians  to  transact  affairs  for  Gain. 
They  recognize  no  benevolence  in  trade ;  and  so  ro- 
bust is  their  conviction  that  many  generations  must 
pass  before  their  consciences  become  so  sick  that  they 
will  spend  all  that  they  have,  even  for  Sport,  to  attain 
altruistic  bliss. 

The  Myopians  of  1882,  intent  on  their  sport,  had 
no  idea  that  their  presence  would  have  any  effect  on 
the  village  of  Hamilton,  which  has  improved  so 
much  in  general  appearance  as  to  call  out  the  com- 
ment of  people  who  knew  it  then ;  and  as  to  feeling 
they  would  be  factors  in  influencing  in  any  way  such 
stupendous  problems  as  Real  Estate  and  Taxes,  —  it 
was  farthest  from  their  thoughts.  The  Village  Im- 
provement Society  goes  on  with  the  good  work. 

The  Press  has  exhausted  its  joke  and  satire,  some- 
times amusing  and  sometimes  rather  bitter ;  and  it

now  defends  polo  and  other  sports,  and  publishes  in 
the  society  items  the  rather  monotonous  news  about 
"breakfasts"  with  good  grace. 

But  it  is  hardly  within  the  scope  of  this  rough 
sketch  to  enumerate  all  our  achievements. 

It  is  rather  remarkable  that  after  long  wanderings 
so  many  Myopians  should  return  to  historic  Essex 
County  from  which  their  ancestors  went  to  seek 
their  fortunes  a  century  ago.  In  locating  here  they 
have  undoubtedly  increased  their  usefulness,  and  the 
community  has  been  benefited.  It  is  argued  by  stu- 
dents of  the  question  that  the  settling  of  city  peo- 
ple in  our  villages  is  of  mutual  advantage  to  both. 
Each  can  learn  much  of  the  other,  as  both  at  the 
start  are  apt  to  be  misunderstood.  Hamilton  is  an 
instance  of  the  best  results  obtained  by  this  blending. 

English  country  life  is  a  relic  of  the  feudal  system ; 
but  no  such  conditions  exist  in  New  England.  Sim- 
plicity is  most  prominent  at  Hamilton.  Though 
the  leaps  from  city  luxury  to  Hamiltonian  simplicity 
are  wide,  all  seem  to  land  safely  and  to  enjoy  life 
even  more  on  the  "  landing  side."  It  may  be  asked 
if  we  are  advancing  in  the  path  of  the  simplicity 
claimed  for  uncivilized  tribes,  who  for  "  honesty, 
amiability,  self-government,  and  freedom  are  examples 
to  communities  more  advanced."  We  are  unable  to 
answer.  But  it  is  hoped  that  boys  growing  up  here 
will  prefer  horses  and  ponies  rather  than  the  bow  and 


38  Red  Room  and  Other  Chat 

arrow  or  the  javelin,  instruments  of  sport,  which 
always  seem  to  accompany  the  simplicity  of  the  un- 
civilized. 

The  temperature  of  club  life  might  be  raised  in 
winter.  Why  not  give  Jack  Frost  a  more  conspicu- 
ous niche  in  the  temple  of  Sport  ?  High  carnival 
might  reign  in  his  court,  and  our  cup  would  be 
filled. 

It  was  once  proposed  to  change  our  name  "  Myo- 
pia." If  we  had  made  the  change,  it  would  have 
been  at  the  expense  of  a  great  deal  of  free  advertis- 
ing. Unhappy  is  the  man  who  knows  not  the  sooth- 
ing influence  of  "  Myopia  cigars."  With  what  pride 
we  read  the  glaring  announcement  in  the  bar-room 
windows,  "Choice  Myopia  Club  Whiskey"  —  yet 
unknown  to  Myopians.  Perhaps  the  superintendent 
has  his  suspicions  as  to  the  quality  !  Shop  windows 
in  New  York  are  filled  with  Myopia  neckties,  and 
yet  no  Boston  haberdasher  has  yet  complimented  us 
with  any  such  wares.      Such  is  fame  —  near  home  ! 

But  it  may  be  said,  "  Why  so  many  reminis- 
cences ?  We  asked  for  songs  !  "  Read  your  Badmin- 
ton and  notice  the  reverential  antiquarian  spirit  with 
which  the  writer  speaks  of  groping  into  the  dark 
ages  of  the  Quorn,  whose  glory  dates  from  1753. 
We  do  not  date  back,  to  be  sure,  but  why  not  make 
the  most  of  our  existence  ?  Besides,  a  history  of  the 
Myopia  may  be  written  in  the  future,  and  this  vol-

ume  may  then  be  yellow-leaved,  musty,  and  envel- 
oped in  the  glamour  of  age,  and  with  all  its  vagaries 
may  prove  the  very  Genesis  of  the  Myopia  Hunt 
Club.  Besides,  the  old  squires  will  enjoy  fighting 
their  battles  over  again.  If  one  pleasant  recollection 
here  revived  suggests  another,  they  have  not  been 
written  in  vain. 

We  have  had  our  shining  lights,  to  whom  the 
country  listens  when  addressed.  Others  are  known 
by  their  writings.  Some  have  won  an  "  Hon.,"  and 
more  titles  are  in  view.  Some  are  pressing  into  the 
front  ranks  in  their  professions.  The  mainstay  of 
the  Club  is  the  work-hard-and-play-hard  business 
man.  Some  of  the  brightest  stars  are  no  longer  vis- 
ible in  the  Myopian  firmament,  —  "  tho'  lost  to  sight, 
to  memory  dear." 

We  have  groped  along  in  a  Myopic  way ;  we  have 
added  polo  and  golf  to  our  sport,  and  though  there 
is  no  increase  of  riders  in  the  hunting  field,  and  no 
increase  of  polo  players,  yet  golf  has  added  very  much 
to  the  life  of  the  Club  and  also  to  the  grounds. 
The  improved  appearance  of  the  Club  grounds  is 
also  due  to  golf.  They  are  no  longer  clad  in  russet 
brown  of  the  earlier  days,  but  wear  their  new  man- 
tle of  bright  green.  The  landscape  effect  might  be 
heightened  by  the  addition  of  more  picturesque  shep- 
herds of  the  Watteau  variety.  We  are  fortunate  in 
having  an  interesting  golf  course,  which  undoubtedly 
will  be  fast  when  "  tuned  up."

Though  the  Myopia  Hunt  Club  is  only  a  sapling, 
the  prospects  of  becoming  a  tree  were  never  brighter 
than  now,  for  the  reason  that  the  interest  in  sport  is 
increasing,  and  the  leisure  contingent  is  growing. 
To  use  the  latest  definition  —  "Leisure  consists  in 
the  diligent  and  intelligent  use  of  time."  When 
lived  up  to  on  these  lines,  leisure  ought  to  be  con- 
sidered highly  respectable,  though  the  comment  is 
sometimes  harsh.  Men  of  leisure  cannot  be  drones. 
Those  who  had  earned  a  competency  used  to  take 
their  ease ;  though  a  rich  retired  soap-maker  once 
applied  to  his  successors  for  permission  to  assist  at 
the  soap-boiling  on  boiling  days.  This  seems  to 
be  doing  a  sort  of  penance  for  idleness.  But  now 
we  have  golf,  with  its  never-ceasing  interest  and 
adapted  to  all  ages,  which  is  the  panacea  of  all  ills 
of  body  and  soul ;  and  the  retired  need  not  sigh  for 
the  "shop."  New  England  is  fast  becoming  the 
play-ground  of  this  country  for  the  leisure  element. 
A  sporting  colony  is  their  paradise,  and  we  are  likely 
to  receive  our  share  of  their  support. 

Everything  within  the  limits  of  the  Club  purse  is 
being  expended  to  improve  the  sporting  facilities. 
With  such  an  able  management  as  we  have,  who 
give  up  much  valuable  time  for  the  benefit  of  mem- 
bers, the  Myopia  Hunt  Club  is  sure  to  preserve  its 
attractions,  and  —  though  perhaps  it  may  be  hard  for 
old  members  to  admit  it — may  have  a  future  even 
more  interesting  than  its  past. 


MR.    HENRY.   (iOLF    CHAMPION,    1895 


APOLOGY 


IT 

IF  the  chorus  is  not  hoarse  (no  pun  intended),  with 
profound  apologies  to  the  strictly  hunting  set 
of  the  Myopia  Hunt  Club,  a  few  Yachting  Songs 
are  introduced.  Doubtless  many  in  the  Club  will 
be  reminded  of  "jolly  old  yachting  days,"  —  the 
days  of  the  Fortuna,  Phantom,  Mohican,  Active, 
Maggie,  Addie,  North  Star,  —  and  the  Bayadere, 
owned  by  "  Squire  "  Merrill.  The  "  Squire  "  was 
one  of  the  first  to  mount  his  hunter  in  answer  to 
the  call  of  his  country  (Myopia)  to  repel  the  inva- 
sion of  the  enemy  (Reynard). 


NOTE 


IF 


THE  author,  as  you  have  doubtless  discovered, — 
or  will  discover,  —  is  not  truly  musical.  No- 
thing is  claimed  except  an  intimacy  with  the  key  of 
C,  which  never  ripened  into  a  friendship,  as  the 
key  of  C  was  unmercifully  pummeled  to  extract  the 
airs.  In  fact  the  piano  keys  fairly  trembled  when 
approached,  showing  that  even  music  has  its  brute 
side.  If  the  airs  are  not  what  they  should  be,  it  is 
not  the  fault  of  the  key  of  C  or  the  piano,  but  a 
case  of  a  "  bad  man  on  a  good  horse." 

In  view  of  these  facts,  why  not  organize  a  "  Soci- 
ety for  the  Prevention  of*  Banging  Pianos  "  ?  Why 
not  have  heavy  fines  for  discords  ?  There  would 
be  no  lack  of  voluntary  lobbying  at  the  State  House 
to  bring  about  a  pressure  for  the  passage  of  such  laws. 
Because  of  this  lack  of  musical  knowledge,  the  writing  of 
the  music  and  arrangement  of  waltzes  has  been  left  to 
others.

CONCLUSION 


BUT  you  are  weary  ?  There  will  be  no  attempt 
at  a  graceful  literary  "  finish,"  no  conciliation 
or  defiance  of  critics,  though  it  may  not  be  amiss  for 
the  author  to  express  his  regret  that  this  work  has 
not  been  committed  to  more  competent  hands. 

As  "  discretion  is  the  truest  valor "  and  always 
sportsmanlike,  considering  that  the  mount  is  "  green," 
and  the  pastures  heavy  and  "  trappy,"  it  may  be  pru- 
dent to  "  pull  out."  The  author  therefore  decides  not 
to  "  go  through  ;  "  and  he  parts  company  from  those 
who  have  "  followed  "  in  this  "  run  "  with  its  vari- 
ety of  country,  leaving  it  to  them  to  increase  the 
glory  of  THE  MYOPIA  HUNT  CLUB. 

IF 

Make  "this  subject  for  heroic  song;" 
The  author's  trifles  may  not  last  long. 
Excel  in  sport,  and  "  merry,  merry  be ;" 
Dance  the  "  tipsy  dance  of  jollity ;  " 
Let  chats  of  hunting,  golf  polo,  race. 
Find  the  Dr.  "Johnsons  in  their  place  !

N  mettled  hunter  seated  firm, 
In  form  and  grace  complete. 
The  dullest  heart  will  light  and  burn 
As  we  the  fair  Dianas  greet. 

No  picture  is  their  peer. 

For  Art  must  stand  aside ; 

For  them  I  shout  my  cheer,  — 

Hurrah  for  the  girls  who  ride  1 

In  salon  they  may  smile 

Or  look  demure  and  sweet. 

But  glances  cannot  so  beguile 

As  those  that  grace  the  "  meet ; " 

Fresh  air  and  riding  are  blended  wine 

On  hunters  of  easy  stride  ; 

Drink,  drink,  the  vintage  rich,  divine  ! 

Hurrah  for  the  girls  who  ride ! 

With  cheek  aglow  and  flashing  eye. 
Their  faces  with  radiance  lit,  —

Brave  knights  for  them  would  die. 

Of  danger's  cup  would  sip  ; 

For  the  world  loves  pluck 

And  courage  in  peril  tried ; 

We  love  them  and  wish  them  luck ;  — 

God  bless  the  girls  who  ride ! 

Riding  is  a  symphony 

Most  soothing  to  the  mind. 

Brings  body  and  soul  in  harmony,  — 

No  discord  can  you  find ; 

So  then  in  manly  chorus 

Let  it  swell  like  the  ocean  tide. 

With  voices  strong,  sonorous,  — 

Hosannas  for  the  girls  who  ride  !
